WHATS the difference ?

N. 0, States.
Our esteemed friend of the Minden
Democrat. Tribune says that, "when
Tensas' fraudulent vote went to help
nominate McEnery and count in the
debt amendment it was all right !; bat
when it turned against McEnery's pet
Boatner," 1. e., when Tensas' frauau-
lent vote went fer the reformers. chow
the ring did kick" And so the Re
formers fought for and thankfully re-
ceiVed Tensas' fraudulent vote. And
now will our Minden contemporary
tell us what the difference is between
fellow who robs hen roost on Mon
day and one who rObs the same hen
roost on Tuesday ? We have heard
a gleat deal about, and seen a good
deal of these reformers, and it NAV be
safely said, that if the RingsLerg stuff
more ballot boxes, or scoop up more
fraudulent delegates, Or get in more
solid rascaIity than tho Reformers.
they will have 10 stay mp very late at
night and get up very early in the
morning. This Is a miserable bust
ness that all honest men and true
Democrats are DESTROYS ofsnppressing.
But 1t is not going 10 be suppressed
by gang Of bosses, simply styling
themselves Reformers. The Reform.
s erS propose, if we are to Judge by the
Iensas business, not TO suppress, but
to capture the methods of the Ring.

Caleasieu Arteslan Well and Oil Co.,
a vein of good water has been struck
at q depth of 5Il feet, and the we'll,
at the present writing, Friday morn

$4,000 gallons in ID hours. The flow
Of water no donbt wall be greatly in
creased as soon as the sediment around
the bottom Of the pipe is removed.
30, now, the successful sinking of
artesian wells, and the securing Of
cool and delicious drinking water
in Lake Charles is now no longer
a question but an accomplished fact,
as the water flowing from this
well is pronounced by all TO be very
fine, and many say it contains yalua-
Die mineral properties. a bottle full
sent to Mr.. A. ], Perkins, at Galveston,
was pronounced BY prominent gentle
men of that city 10 be most excellent
drinking water, and as palalabIe as
any spring water ever tasted by them.
Much credit is due Col. Haskell for
theeneFgy and perseverance displayed
in successfully prosecuting the boring

An exchange says the supply Of
moss in Louisiana, on the seaboard
and on the streams in the lower par
ishes, is immense--probably inexhaust-
IDLE. Thousands Of square miles of
forests arefestooned with it, and were
the present crop gathered and the
woods left bare, but afeR years wonld
elapse before it would be as abundant
as before. The low, wide-spreading
live oaks and the sweet gum, and the
facilities for running wagons every
where under the trees, present advan-
tages for gathering it not found else
where. Its merits and cheapness have
created large demand for it in Eng
land, and as it becomes known
throughout Europe it must inevitably
supersede all other materials for the
purposes for winch it is adapted, and
certainly become an important item in
our export trade as well as home con-
sumption. This moss is also found in
great abundance in the forests of Cal
casien parish, and the gathering of it
could be made paying industry, as
good black moss is at present quoted
Il 81 TO 4 cents per pound in the New
orleans market, and is very scarce at
hat.
